Ok, let's assume that the watcher set drops from a special monster you summon into a master expedition by using a special combination of crystals at the start.
Let's also assume you need to have an empowered resonator from the tutorial quests.
Afaik there are 5 types of crystal: chaos, balance, empowered, rage, and whatever the last one was. Ad, gold, drop, drop, and rp.
5x5x5 means 125 possible combintaions.
However, I guessing it won't be 3 of a kind, so 120 combos.
Almost certainly, they will be all different, so 5x4x3 which means 60 likely combos.
Since everybody has been running with rage in the first slots, then also likely it's not that.
So, basically, get your enhanced resonator from the quest. Slot three different runes, but not rage first. Write down what you've tried, and post combinations here.
Also, a bit of a stretch, but cryptic gave us all the myconoid pet, perhaps that needs to be summomed while you run the MEs.
Anyway - gl.

Emerald, yellow, emerald. Equals "eye".
One of the best artifact weapon sets in Undermountain can be acquired in Expeditions, provided you can find and defeat its guardians. from the Undermountain Expeditions blog
Also, in a different blog, we have...
With so many new adventurers showing up in Undermountain upsetting the wildlife, some of the more dangerous creatures are going to come out to play. And if you are willing to lure out and defeat these rare monsters, you are sure to get their rare treasures! These summoned rare monsters drop hard-to-find armor pieces, vanity pets, and one of the best weapons sets you can find in Undermountain, the Watcher set!
Eye would be empowered, balanced, empowered. But haven't tried it yet.
Or if it is a special monster - maybe a beholder. Some of the runic HEs have special monsters in them - is one a beholder?
I also find it curious that there are a bunch of doors we can reach but not open in MEs.
I’m also suspicious about needing 5 people in a 3 rune ME being necessary, as that triggers the hardest difficulty.
Lots of possible clues and combinations.
Obsidian Oath - Warlock
A whole lot of other Obsidian toons as well.
Tbh. The ammount of MEs being done everyday, in every combination of rune, party size etc.you'd think someone would have stumbled onto it by sheer dumb luck.
We must be missing something.
Did u consider that it is first to master aII quests given by sinyé? then maybe try something with aII theories?
"And if you are willing to lure out and defeat these rare monsters, you are sure to get their rare treasures"
AIso, has anyone, who finished quests thread aIready, got a Iure or something?
After that completion we did some MEs 3 runes and i got many gold and black pearls.
Or it is just one step in the puzzle. Puzzles are funny like that.

edit:Also when a Beholder, Remorhaz, etc other big nasty appears at a runic HE it says
"A Powerful Creature Emerges" across the top of you're screen. Easter egg?

Item Description: An overwhelming thirst to fight consumes you. Perhaps there is a place where you can quench this desire.
Considering the following...
1) Mountaineer set isn't actually in the tradebar store.
2) We recently started getting "Essence" from ME's when LoMM was released, as far as I am aware, no one actually knows how to "Awaken" these essences to restore the Successor gear. So restored Successor gear is currently gated, info/time gated, who knows.
3) I have not heard of anyone getting the currency to buy vanity pet chests from Zok.
4) When they redid professions, for certain Masterwork weapons, a bug made it impossible to craft +1 variants, most likely the code for the +1 version pointed to the regular version. This wasn't fixed until a couple months before M16 hit preview. (I was the one who found the bug, and yes, I made my case with elementary probability and statistics I took in high school).
5) If 5,000 toons run 3 ME's per day, for the last 24 days, that's eyes on ME instances 360,000 times, many of these times people scoured every square inch of the maps. This isn't even considering time on Preview. I'd guess about 1,000 people farm some resonance every day, at least. Out of all these interactions with the content, I find it hard to believe no has got even one piece of the Watcher set yet, most likely there would be at least one screenshot.
... I would bet money on the method for obtaining the Watcher set hasn't been released yet, or is actually bugged and the developers are not aware that it is bugged (or are at least not disclosing that it is). I would be very surprised if it was truly an Easter Egg Puzzle in a ME map that we simply have not found yet, it would have to be something so totally ridiculous that it may actually be possible that it never gets solved, like the party members have to be standing on 5 specific spots that are not highlighted in any way, to get the event to trigger, some HAMSTER like that.
As time goes on and still no one gets the Watcher set, it becomes even more likely that the method for obtaining them is in fact bugged, or not even available yet.
Confirm plz.
